Description:

Fighting discrimination is one of the most rewarding things you can do with your law degree. There are a variety of ways to do it: direct representation, legislative advocacy, policy work, community organizing, and more. You can focus on one or more areas where discrimination occurs, including housing, employment, education, public accommodations, healthcare, prisons, mental health facilities, and nursing homes. You can specialize in working on behalf of a specific protected class, such as women or people with disabilities, or work in any combination of issue and protected class.
